The inspiring journey of Joe, a shy barber who took the plunge into entrepreneurship, is a remarkable example of overcoming fears and chasing dreams. Nine months prior, Joe lacked confidence and believed he couldn’t achieve his aspiration of owning a barbershop. However, with the encouragement of Simon Squibb, Joe was given £1,000 to kick-start his business journey.
Throughout this period, Joe faced numerous rejections, battling feelings of doubt and fear, yet his determination began to shine through when he recognized the power of social media. By going live on TikTok, he was able to connect with potential customers, exponentially increasing his outreach.
Simon provided Joe with challenges that pushed him out of his comfort zone, allowing him to experience firsthand the inevitability of rejection in business. After many attempts and overcoming personal barriers, Joe successfully styled hair for new clients, solidifying his confidence and bolstering his dream.
In the culmination of this journey, Simon surprised Joe with his very own studio space, generously sponsored by Tradestars, allowing him to continue nurturing his craft in a defined space. Joe now embodies the belief that the journey to success is often easier when broken down into manageable steps.
